Background: Fabry disease (FD), an X-linked lysosomal disorder, is marked by a lack of alpha-galactosidase A (α-Gal A). Agalsidase beta, a recombinant form of α-Gal A, is fundamental to enzyme replacement therapy for FD but requires close monitoring for adverse events (AEs).
Research Design And Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database for agalsidase beta-related AEs.
Background: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common autosomal dominant hereditary disease. Its early diagnosis and intervention significantly improve the patient's quality of life. However, there are few types of research on the FH pathogenic genes in China.

Methods: 109 patients with neuropathic diabetic foot ulcers and 30 burn victims otherwise healthy participated.
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most severe manifestation of peripheral artery disease, which is common but rarely diagnosed. Noninvasive biomarkers are urgently required to assist in the diagnosis of CLI. Accumulating evidence indicates that miRNAs play an important role in the development of various diseases.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major contributor to peripheral artery disease (PAD), especially in cases that advance to critical limb ischemia (CLI). Accumulating evidence indicates that miRNAs play an important role in the development of PAD and T2DM. Due to the limited value of current diagnostic methods for CLI in T2DM patients, we compared the miRNA expression profiles of Chinese T2DM patients with or without CLI to find out whether distinctive miRNAs could serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers.

Specifically, the organization and functions of caveolae are mediated by structure protein (caveolin-1) and adapter protein (cavin-1). The pathogenic role of caveolin-1 is well studied; nevertheless, mechanisms whereby cavin-1 regulates signaling transduction remain poorly understood.
